EP 130: We all seek resources to help us in our journey; be it people who affirm that what we are doing is the right thing, or people who pick us up when we're down, or who keep motivating us forward when we're resting on our laurels. This episode is about recognizing that what you seek is already in your corner. It may manifest itself in different ways, but it is not far away. I dedicate this episode to all of those who have supported me over the years, particularly over these past couple of months. I am so grateful for the clients, colleagues, friends, and family in my corner. I hope this helps someone out there.

EP 129: In today's episode, I am citing the film, A Million Miles Away, in which the protagonist's father gives his son 5 ingredients in a recipe for achieving success. Now regardless of whether you buy into this recipe is of no concern, but maybe if you have yet to build your own recipe, this will help ignite that spark, because those who often achieve their goals, have very clear visions and outlines for how to approach their path.

EP 126: Let's face it... Millennials and Gen-Z are delaying, if not giving up on, many common adulthood decisions that came far more naturally to the generations before them. Marriage, home-buying, investing, saving for retirement, and having children are seen by some as nearly impossible due to the economics of today's day, and one of the big drivers in delaying those decisions....student loans.
The crushing weight of 5-6 figure debt for 18-22-year-olds is often more than they can handle after the fact. This is why preparing for college finances is so important; whether you're a high schooler planning your college route, a currently enrolled university student, a recent graduate, or a parent preparing for their kids' journey in the higher education process, please understand one basic principle; college is a business, and your student loans are paying the bills.
Today, we're bringing photographer, Matt Brown, back to the show to have an honest conversation about rising student loans, not relying on debt relief programs, applying for grants and scholarships, and the people you need to rely on to make the most out of your college experience.

EP 121: Clients seek out portrait photography services for a variety of interests and needs; be it for corporate, family, or brand-building reasons. There's also a market of people who seek out more personal and empowering forms of artistic expression that may not be seen quite as often by friends, family, and colleagues. In this episode, we talk with Arizona boudoir photographer, Shayla Pelton, about her journey through this fascinating space of sexuality and expression. We chat about the emotional power of her very first boudoir session, the ways she comforts people in front of the camera, the onboarding and offboarding of her clients and deliverables, and everything in between. This is an enlightening, charming, and infectious discussion about self-love and courage, and I'm glad you get to listen to it!

EP 120: The photojournalism industry, particularly when it comes to newspapers, isn't anywhere as strong as it used to be. A most recent slashing of journalists at the LA Times is a harsh reminder that we always need to be updating our resumes just in preparation for situations like this. But furthermore, how do we process the mental side of the recovery? A portfolio or resume certainly won't help quell your stress or anxiety. In this episode, I'll list 5 prompts to hopefully help you get through the panic.

EP 118: Perhaps starting your creative business in your early 20s seems ideal, but there is no one way to approach a creative life, let alone a singular progression. In fact, there are many advantages to starting or pivoting your business after the age of 40 because of the skills you now possess. In this episode, I talk about my entry into the 40 club and why I view it as an asset, not a liability.

EP 115: Did you know that accounting is an important part of your business? Of course, you did! The problem is many of us are not fully equipped to handle those duties while also trying to be the very best artist we can be. This is where hiring an accountant can come into play, but that first step in approaching one can be intimidating or overwhelming for first-time business owners. After all, what do we say? What do we ask? Is my business valid enough? I only do this part-time! In this episode, I sit down with Christian Brim, who is a licensed CPA, himself, and also the CEO of an accounting firm that works hand-in-hand with creative entrepreneurs and small business owners. We talk about why it's so important to communicate fully with any accountant about your goals and what you want out of your business.
